The Monroe County man who fled from police Wednesday is in a Macon hospital. That's according to Monroe County District Attorney Richard Milam.

Jeffrey Keith Sligh, 36, suffered injuries during the wreck, including having teeth knocked out. Sligh's attorney told his family that he is undergoing facial reconstruction surgery at the Medical Center.

His father Tony Sligh has been trying to find out about his son's condition since Thursday morning and was devastated after learning he ran away. Sligh was sentenced Wednesday to 20 years for burglary.

Milam said Sligh is under police supervision, and that once he is released from the hospital, he will most likely go straight to state prison.

"He said that he didn't really want to go to jail for something that he did not commit, and that it would be devastating to him, that it would kill him to go to jail for something like that," said his father.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine apples, water and lemon juice in an lightly greased 8x8 inch baking dish. In a bowl combine oatmeal, flour, brown sugar and cinnamon. Pour in the butter and stir to make a crumbly mixture. Spread mixture evenly over apples, bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the topping is crisp and browned.

During the partial government shutdown and the rollout of the Affordable Healthcare Act, many have heard calls to "contact your congressional representative".

So how do you go about that, at a time when many government agencies and offices are hobbled by increased workloads and reduced staff?

13WMAZ Thursday went online and took to the phones to contact Washington offices for all congressmen representing Central Georgia as well as the state's two senators. While we were at it, we checked out the White House's website too.
